Explanation:

a) the bonds are isued at 97.50%

410,000 x 97.50% = 399,750

b) discount difference between cash proceeds and face value:

410,000 - 399,750 = 10,250

c) if the bonds are discounted using straight line:

10,250 / 20 years = 512.5

d)

at 2022 there is 5 amortization:

512.5 x 5 = 2,562.5

discount value: 10,250 - 2,562.5 = 7,687.5

carrying value 410,000 - 7,687.5 = 402,312.5‬

e)

410,000 bonds payable x 20% at 105% = 86,100

carrying book value of 20%:

402,312.5 x 20% =                                    80,462.5  

f)         loss on redemption:                            5,637.5

g)

20% of the face value

410,000 x 20% = 82,000

20% of the discount:

7,687.5 x 20% = 1,537.5

loss on redemption 5,637.5

cash disbursement 86,100
